Spend a day in Bali’s highlands combining the spray and stairs of Sekumpul Waterfall with the reflective calm of Ulun Danu Beratan. This private 6-hour tour includes hotel pickup, a local lunch and photo stops at Wanagiri’s lake viewpoints.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive before the heat, the minivan slipping up the narrow highland roads as mist lifts from rice terraces and tamarind trees. Wanagiri’s lake viewpoints open like a theater: swings, bird’s-nest platforms and a cool, glassy Beratan lake in the distance. Later the path narrows and the world tilts — a steep stair descent, a 30–40 minute hike and slippery stones leading to a cluster of falls that roar against volcanic rock.
